The AOPEN Hardwired Touch to Open Door Sensor is a premium contactless door sensor designed for automatic door activation, access control systems, door entry systems, and a wide range of switching applications. Operating on 12–28V DC, this stylish hardwired touch sensor provides reliable, touch-free activation without the need for physical pressure, making it an ideal alternative to traditional push buttons and mechanical door switches.

Unlike conventional push pads, this touch free door sensor activates with a simple hand movement, making it particularly suitable for wheelchair users, people with limited dexterity, and environments where hygiene and accessibility are essential. As a DDA compliant door switch, it helps provide inclusive access for all users while supporting accessibility requirements in public and commercial buildings.

The adjustable sensitivity allows installers to fine-tune operation, while the integrated sounder and selectable LED indicators provide clear visual and audible confirmation upon activation. This makes the sensor an excellent disabled access door sensor and wheelchair door activation sensor for automatic entrances, accessible toilet doors, healthcare facilities, schools, offices, and public buildings.

To help create cleaner and safer environments, the sensor face is protected by an antimicrobial additive proven to eliminate up to 99.9% of germs. By reducing contact with shared surfaces, this hygienic door sensor offers a safer alternative to traditional mechanical push pads and hospital switches, helping to minimise the spread of bacteria and infection.

The bold signage, illuminated indicators, and audible feedback make the AOPEN an ideal automatic door activation sensor and contactless exit button for users with visual or hearing impairments. Its modern appearance, robust construction, and reliable performance make it one of the most popular automatic door switches available for today’s buildings.

◾ Touch sensor doesn’t beep/activate when touched

Step-by-step checks: After each step below, de-power the system for 10 seconds and power it back up.

Screw the sensor to the wall properly, don’t have it dangling or in your hand.
Change the sensitivity.
Ensure the jumper next to the touch sensor relay is on and is making properly.
Make sure 0V is in the correct terminal, not the REM terminal.
Use a multimeter to check you’ve got voltage at the touch sensor (+V Red & 0V black).
Take off the wall and connect power directly to the power supply on a short piece of cable to rule out any cable issues or short circuits.

◾ Touch sensor activates randomly

Solution:

Turn down the sensitivity on the touch to open door sensor, especially if there is emergency lighting nearby.
Make sure there isn’t excess cable in the back box.
Re-terminate all connections.
Touch sensors can be activated by changes in voltage which is a problem on unregulated power supplies. Fit a separate transformer.
